question, hilt without denying the fact
that it Is being discussed learnedly the
fact remains that probably not one
person in one hundred knows what
Opium really is, that not one in a
thousand knows that there are other
places beside Chinese “joints" where it
is smoked, and that still fewer are
aware that the eastern habitucs are

it is not fully understood that the

, opium. That of China is but slightly
harmful. while that of India is a ver-
itable poison. This, is the real ex“

From Rowayton comes the following
recipe‘for shrimp wiggle, contributed
because it is so good and “different"
from the others: Melt twatabiespoons
butter and blend four tablespoons of
flour in it. When smooth add one
_ quart of tomato soup and let hell up.
...‘ss.ur.,add three cans of shrimps (wet
pack) which have been washed in cold
water and cut in half. Let cook just
long enough to heat shrimps. Serve
plain or on crackers or toast. All who
like tomatoes will be sure to try this.

(Continued from first page)
It is estimated that there were
about 1,800 people in. the audience,
Includingmnny prominent residents. of
the city; and of this big assemblage
a large number were ladies. Justice
Wright's action met with ringing des
iiunclation and the batters were urged
to stand by their union to the limit.
At the head of this article is the reso-
by the meeting, by a rising vote.
At the conclusion of the various ad-
dresses, tbe Ilev. Dr. Charles S. Mao
farland stepped forward on the stage
and said that he had known the three
men for years and knew them to be
honorable men. lie then read the
resolution, which was enthusiastically
adopted. President l’iort' J. llrunstrnp
announced the national hymn “Ain-
erion" and the audience joined in;
bringing to an end a. gathering which
the oilielnls and members oi‘ the union
have no doubt. will prove of great
benefit to the cause. '

The meeting was scheduled for ‘2

this hour. before the ceren‘ionles be-
gan. While the big audience was on;
senibliug, an orchestra of about lwoirl
ty-iive pieces, donated for' the oven-I

the singing of the last verse. 3.
Mayor liurnoll, as chairman, then In—
troduced the Rev. Dr. i\lm:l‘arlund. the
first speaker of the afternoon. who was
greeted with vigorous applause. Fre-
quently through his address, be was
also applauded, as were also all of the
other speakers.
I‘Jr. Macfarland is just recovering
from a severe attack of the grip and
was still quite Wt'iik from the effects
of the malady. At the outset of his
remarks, he explained that he was just.
out of a sick bed and that he had writ:
ten his address in order that should
be full by the wayside, another might
take up the address and read it. for
him.
(Dr. Maci’arlaud's address appears
to full on page :3 of this issue). ‘
For the second speaker of the after-
noon, the audience bad :1 trout. and
surprise in Ilie presence of Miss Annie,
0.. Patterson, of lirooklyu, chairman
of the committee on new auxiliaries,
of the Label Council of the Women‘s
Auxiliaries of Greater New York.
Miss Patterson, at. tho wery outset.
demonstrated her ability .0 address a
.arge audience and to carry conviction
with her words. She strongly urged
the formation here of an auxiliary to
spread the gospel of union label goods
.ind illustrated how successful such
organizations had been elsewhere and
how much greater work they may do.
Referring to Dr. lilaci‘arlaud‘s belief
In the purposes of the labor unions.
she emphasized that she believed In
them and In the United llutters of
North America, who have a widespread
strike at the iresent time.
“The Hatters‘ Union," said she,
"stands for decent homes for the work-
are In the batting industry. The Man.
ufacturers' Association has begun a
war on the iiatters‘ Union. They
want to do away will! the union, so
that they can put the workers wllol't‘.
they want them. There are some good
not maimfacturers. but it is impossible
for them to continue to be good manu-
facturers. They are all striving to
make. iliolley,~ to crowd down labor
and to get luboras cheaply as pos»
slble. because that's business."
The speaker pointed out that it. Is
the labor union that stands between
the continual pressure of themanu~
facturers and the employee. It is up
to all union men to insist on getting
union products she believed, and also
that the woman can help a great deal
lp getting the men to buy union made
goods. There are, she explained, 2.~
500,000 nlen in the American Fedora
tion of Labor and these. augmented
by 500,000 farmers sympathetic to un-
ionism, buying two hats a year, could
make a. market for 6,000,000 union bath
a year. With a. little campaigning, she
had no doubt the number could be
doubled. .
The manufacturers, she further con-
tended, are out for blood, and warned
workers not to be lured on by promises
of soft jobs. In illustrating what may
be done by a campaign for unionism.
she told of the big in reuse in the
business of an independent and com-
paratively small milk company In
Brooklyn, whOse engineer force be
came unionized. She told. too, of how
members of various trade unions in
Brooklyn are dropping in on the retail
hat dealers and letting them know of
their sympathy for .the hat makers
in the present trouble. There was “0
doubt in‘her mind that retail mer-
chants everywhere would carry more
and more union goods if the unions
push the campaign, for the merchants
would surely follow the course netting
them the most returns,
After a selection by‘ the orchestra,
, Mayor Burnell introduced Mr. troup-
hus. Mr. Donahue considered it a
magnificent thing that the best think-
ers of the country are lp accord with
the- labor unions of the country. "if
the unions did nothing else than pne-
vent ohlldren from working in the fan-
torles, that alone would justify the un-
ions' existence." he declared. ‘
The labor unions, the said, aim to
'olnsy the law.

We have allowed the representatives
of the moneyed interests to safeguard
themselves in very possibl way. They
have seen to it that. they are repre-
sented in Congress and ill the Courts
of the General Government. I do not
mean to say that they have been the
means of elevating dishonest men to
the bench, but they haye used their in-
fluence to have the Federal Judges ap‘
pointed almost wholly from the ranks
of attorneys representing great con
poi-ate interests. I make no question.
however, about their honesty and abil-
ity, but, when questions of discretion
come before them for decision, they
are very apt. to follow the bent given
them by their previous employment

have been fortunate in the ability and
honesty of our judiciary, lint. I can't
help feeling that in the main our Fed-
eral judges have been more consider-
ate of vested rights than the rights
of man. I hink this was fairly illus-
traiud in the whiteness imposed by
Mr, Justice Wright on Messrs. (joul—

men are not criminals. They associate
in iii! affairs of life with members of
the President‘s Cabinet. and With many
of the ublest and best men of the coun»

have rendered splendid service to their

to be within the. pale of their constitu-

Never has there been a ul‘t‘-;tler.nt*ut‘1
for Christian homes. ,Now England
\i‘ns made strong by godly homes. with
godly fathers and mothers. Today
there is ilt‘t‘tI that we keep up the stair
(lard. Never has there been greater
need that children should hear from
their fathers and mothers about the
necessity of the l“t=li_ir.Ious life: and yet
how many homes tlirrs are. where the
children hear their parents speak of
everything else save of the Christ
\vliomihey profess to love and serve.
While fathers are devoting them-
selves in their business and their
clubs. and the mothers are busy with
social duties, sin is robbing the child‘
ren of their greatest possession, and
biighting their characters,
In the evening Miss Lord spoke on
the subject, "What is a Christian and
How to Become Ono." After the slug-
ing of “Yo Must. Be Born Again,“ by
Harry I1. Sterling. Miss Lord spoke
from ,the same words. presenting very
clearlynpd earnestly the requirements
for a Christian life. With our present
physical organs. We could not live long
under water. We would need a new
physical organism for this. Some have
no eye for color. nor stir for music. "01'
soul for literature. In. order to enjoy.
these things. a deep ‘and radical
change is necessary. And so in order
to understand God. it is necessary that
a. man shall have a. new nature. Bil
nature there is no fellowship between
the human heart and God, and so in or-
men must be radically changed so as
to become new creatures. Just as men
far away from their homes are helped
and pheered by the letters and mommy
ies of home. so down here it is possible
for men In this \vorldto have the com—
fort and cheer from God's message of
love to his children. The songs of the ,
Chi Isilnu life are to be found in a new
sense of the Fatherhood of God; in a
new feeling of love and interest in the
souls about us, and also‘in the new
powar to conquer the temptations that
surround us in the world. During-”the
